A train travels due south at 32 m/s (relative to the ground) in a rain that is blown toward the south by the wind. The path of each raindrop makes an angle of 65° with the vertical, as measured by an observer stationary on the ground. An observer on the train, however, sees the drops fall perfectly vertically. Determine the speed of the raindrops relative to the ground. Number i Units

A golf ball is dropped from rest from a height of 9.90 m. It hits the pavement, then bounces back up, rising just 6.30 m before falling back down again. A boy then catches the ball when it is 1.40 m above the pavement. Ignoring air resistance, calculate the total amount of time that the ball is in the air, from drop to catch. Number i Units
